Vegetarian Star

Grey’s Anatomy actress Jessica Capshaw recently talked about how she is becoming more and more eco-friendly these days, thanks to her husband, Christopher Gavigan, Executive Director and CEO of Healthy Child, Healthy World, a national non-profit organization devoted to children’s environmental health.

“I owe [my eco-consciousness] completely to my husband,” Jessica said.

“Christopher really understands the idea of living as naturally as you possibly can and being conscious of the effect that you have on your environment.”

However, Jessica isn’t interested in doing one simple move that would make a bigger impact than all the recycling, hybrid driving, and consumption reduction in the world would do by going vegetarian.

Although she does try to reduce her meat intake and keep it out of her two year old son’s diet, she says she can’t imagine life without an occasional cheeseburger.

“I’m a Midwesterner!” she said. “Not being able to have a cheeseburger once in a while would be torture!”

Ah, come on, Jess!

There’s not one soy, seitan, or otherwise vegetable protein burger you can’t find in Hollywood to suit your fancy?

Sounds like fellow cast mate Sandra Oh needs to include Jessica in an afternoon vegan restaurant outing.
